_ _ [F] _ [G] _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _
[C] _ [G] _ [C] It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer and [Dm] singing [C] songs of joy and [Am] peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate [G] away _ on
But [C] it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money, then [D] I'm gonna quit this [C] crazy scene
[Am] I wish I had a river _ I could [G] skate away _ [C] on
I [G] _ _
[F] wish I had a river so [G] long I would [C] teach my [F] feet to [Em] fly
[Dm] _ Oh [E] _ [Dm] _ _ _ [G] _
[C] I wish I had a river _ [G] I could skate [F] away on
My _ _
[C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ baby [C] cried, _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ [Am] _ _ [B] _ _ [Am] _ _ [B] _
[G] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ _
[C] he tried hard to help me, you know
He put me at ease, and he loved me so not, he made [F] me weak [C] in the knees
Oh I [Am] wish I had a _ river I could [G] skate away _ on
I'm _ _ [C] _ so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that [F]
[C] I ever [Am] had
Oh I wish I had a river I could [G] skate away _ on
_ _ [A] I [F] wish I had a river so [G] _ long I would [C] teach my feet [F] to [Em] fly
_ [Dm] Oh [G] _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [C] I wish I had a river [F] _ [G] I could skate [F]
away on
[G] My _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ baby [C] say goodbye _
_ It's _ [B] _ _ [Am] _ _
[Em] _ _ [Am] _ [Em] _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer, [F] singing songs [C] of joy and peace
[Am] I wish I had a river I could _ [G] skate away _ _ _ _ on
